Courses

01 / Pilot cohort · Beginners

Screenwriting Fundamentals

₹999–₹1,4994 live classes · 8 hrs

Weekend masterclasses that take you from an idea to a properly formatted scene: finding a premise, structuring three acts, building character and conflict, then writing dialogue that plays.

Every assignment gets instructor feedback. You'll have Scriptory Pro for the length of the course and a certificate when you finish.

02 / Advanced workshop

From Idea to Feature Film Screenplay

₹2,999–₹4,9998 live masterclasses

A multi-week intensive for writers ready to finish a 110-page draft. The focus is the hardest part — second-act architecture and the turns that keep it moving.

Includes a scene-by-scene outline review, a structural critique, an actor table read of your opening scenes and three months of Pro.

03 / Hands-on labs

Screenplay to Production

Dates to be announced

Live labs that turn a finished script into a shoot: department breakdowns, a shooting schedule and the prep that gets everyone to set on time.

Taught inside Scriptory's own breakdown and scheduling tools, so what you build in class is what you'll use on your film.

Your script stays yours.

Writing or uploading in Scriptory never transfers copyright. Before sharing a full draft in a review circle, we recommend registering it with the Screenwriters Association — uploading here isn't legal registration.
